Sobre Mí

About me!!!

I am a self motivated, young dynamic youth working in the field of HIV and AIDS with six years working experience in adolescent sexual reproductive health, HIV and AIDS counseling and sensitization, life skills development, and peer to peer counseling.

I have been working with different organisation and i have developed a very good perspective of youth development and empowerment. I have also worked on several youth projects in schools and in the community with different category of youth including the marginalised group.

I had work experience with the organmisation listed below.


Aids Education Group for Youth (AEGY)
Working as youth peer educator, activities included sensitization of the youth from the age of 14 to 24 who are both in school and out of school. It involved one to one counseling with the clients and assessments are always done.

AIDS Information Centre, Jinja Branch.
I had work experience as Student’s Coordinator to AIDS Information Centre, Jinja Branch for a period of two (2) years from 2007-2008 while at Jinja Senior Secondary School. My duties entailed among others; Mobilization of the students for sensitization, organizing for and counseling of the students, carrying out research on the relation between HIV/AIDS and the young people.

I also took part in the post test club for the youth who have tested from the centre. Activities included counseling and guidance, drama presentation that convey HIV and AIDS information and many more others.

Currently
Youth leader, African Child Outreach Trust
I am concern with the day to day running of the youth activities, drawing work plans, designing projects, and seeing into it that they are being implemented correctly. I also work with different youth group in the community and at school on issues of HIV and AIDS, Adolescent sexual reproductive health issues, life skills and youth empowerment.

Am also working on establishing and initiating a Youth Organization in my region early next year to help in addressing the increasing rates of HIV/AIDS prevalence in the community.

I believe so much that if youth are given the opportunity, they are always in the forefront of fighting the scourge of HIV/AIDS and effecting positive change in the community due to the influence they have for their fellow peers.

For the two years that i have served as a volunteer peer educator for AIDS Education Group fro Youth, i have realized many potentialities in young people especially after receiving trainings and they have as such acted as partners for change.

With my current position of National Focal Point-Uganda, i look at so many things to contribute for to the Country and the broader GYCA.
